I have stayed in an inside cabin on Century, though not that one. In general I have found them to be pleasant and clean. To put my remarks in context you should know that I am a light packer who spends very little time in the cabin. I found enough room in the closets for five dresses, two evening outfits, two swimsuits, three pairs of shorts, four tops, two pairs of slacks and three pairs of shoes and there was plenty of room left over for my husband's clothes. I've been in boh porthole and nonporthole rooms and find that there is not much difference. By the time we head cabinward at day's end, it's too dark to see anything out the window. In the morning we head to the walking deck before breakfast. Occassionally I have wished for a tub, but the ship's hot tubs take care of that urge. And I sometimes wish the bathroom had just a bit more elbow room. But all, in all, I have loved our snug cabins, especially at day's end when the steward has tidied up, turned down the beds, turned on the lamps, and left us our chocolates. It is so welcoming!

My husband and I just returned from a cruise and we had cabin 4027. I thought the room was wonderful. I pack a lot and there was plenty of drawers, shelves and closets for all our clothes and we even had empty drawers! We only had a shower but it was big enough so I thought the bathroom was okay.
It was actually nice to have it so dark - it was quiet and we were able to really get a good night's sleep.
The room had a mini-bar and a safe, a desk, double bed and small table and chairs. We didn't use the table and chairs other than to lay stuff on them.
Just watch for poles in some of the rooms!

The only problem with an inside room is that we wouldn't wake up until noon or later. The alarms would go off - but with the quiet and darkness, we would gently be rocked back asleep. After our first inside cabin - we vowed to only book ocean view and leave the window shade slightly open to let in daylight. Other than that, there is about the same amount of room and drawer space as a regular oceanview room.

Just back from an upper deck inside room on the Century -- I can verify all that Waterdancer said.

Is the Century still as great as it was. We sailed on the Century in June of 2002 for our 30 yr anniversary and loved it. It was our first cruise and could not have had a better time. We are booked on the Century in Dec., 2004. I try to read recent reviews, but there aren't any new ones on this site very often.

Having just returned from a cruise - I just can't say enough good things about the Celebrity line and the Century ship. I've sailed on HAL and NCL an altough I liked them, I was blown away with Celebrity. The food was heavenly and had enough variety for anyone's taste. the entertainment was very good and again there was enough variety for folks to find what they enjoy. the service was superb and everyone really went out of their way to make your cruise enjoyable. I enjoyed the fact that the staff were from many different counties and it was fun to talk to them, their English is very good and they are a great bunch of people.
The spa was great, I really enjoyed the Aqua spa and bought a week pass for that.
there are more reviews on cruisecritic.com if you're interested in some very in depth reviews.
I'm sure you're have a lovely time. Enjoy.
